    Default Carry at a Vikings, Wolves, Wild Games?

    Can you carry at any of these events? I'm guessing no as they have stepped up pat downs when you enter...

    A lot even have metal detectors, I'm guessing no also. It's pretty close quarters in a game anyway so being fleet of foot or having quick fists are a better option anyway.

    If I were fleet of foot or had quick fists, I wouldn't need a CCW lol...who am I Bruce Lee? lol...Really though it's not that I'm worried about the game itself, it's the walk to and from. I pocket carry a LCP so maybe not even an issue...

    For what it's worth, they just changed #12 :-) Now you can carry anytime in the field so long as you have the permit...

    While it is not illegal to carry at these events, if on-site security asks you to leave and you refuse to leave, you could be prosecuted under MN Statute 624.714 Sub 17

    Source https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/?id=624.714

    Subd. 17.Posting; trespass.

    (a) A person carrying a firearm on or about his or her person or clothes under a permit or otherwise who remains at a private establishment knowing that the operator of the establishment or its agent has made a reasonable request that firearms not be brought into the establishment may be ordered to leave the premises. A person who fails to leave when so requested is guilty of a petty misdemeanor. The fine for a first offense must not exceed $25. Notwithstanding section 609.531, a firearm carried in violation of this subdivision is not subject to forfeiture.

    I went to a Twins game last season no problem. They basically only check large bags. Do you know how long it would take to get everyone in if they did pat-downs?
    I thought I remembered seeing a rule that stadiums over a certain capacity of spectators was off-limits. But I can't seem to find it. Must have been another state.
